The Ray Bradbury Challenge

“I’ll give you a program to follow every night, a very simple program…one poem a night, one short story a night, one essay a night, for the next 1,000 nights. From various fields: archaeology, zoology, biology, all the great philosophers of time, comparing them…But that means that every night then, before you go to bed, you’re stuffing your head with one poem, one short story, one essay—at the end of a thousand nights, Jesus God, you’ll be full of stuff, won’t you?” — Ray Bradbury

Beginning on the 15th of February 2026, I am going to participate in the Ray Bradbury Challenge. Albeit with two caveats.

1. I am only going to engage in the challenge for 365 days, a full year.

2. I am going to write one short story weekly, culminating in 52 short stories by the end of it.
